Shining Up the Moldboards!
Shins
Shins bear the brunt of the opening the furrow slice behind the coulter blade on your JD plow. Many acres of use or use without coulters or improperly adjusted coulters will cause the shin to wear out. If your shin is worn to the point of actually showing wear on the frog right behind it then they are worn out!

It's highly recommend to replace the plow shin when replacing the moldboard since they are more or less a matched pair.
These are a few examples of what a bad shin might look like in an extreme case!
Not that anyone would want to, but this old shin might double as a razor in a pinch.
If your plow bottom happens to be worn to the point of damage like these pictured above and your plow frog is runined you'll need to get a replacement frog.
